Using bluetooth in react native #77

Closed unixbigot closed 5 years ago

unixbigot commented 5 years ago

Summary of talk

So you have a bluetooth sensor or actuator, (say a thermostat, or a door lock, or a garden sensor) and you want to control it from your app, but you'd prefer to stay in react rather than work in Java or Swift just to get access to handset hardware. We'll look at some examples of how to do this and how to explore bluetooth low energy devices in general.

About the speaker

Christopher Biggs is host of Brisbane Internet of Things meetup, and works as an IoT designer and consultant.

@unixbigot So keen! How's your cal looking for July 15th, or August 19th? 🎉

With such a long lead-up too, I'm thinking we could organise & pay for prizes with your talk? Like, you drop tasty facts during the talk, and at the end you have 5 questions going back to them; winners get a board. What do ya think?

unixbigot commented 5 years ago

Either of those dates are doable. Your idea sounds fun, I've never done that before. Don't let me throw prizes, I'm a klutz. :)

@unixbigot Hey mate, looks like a really fun talk to be honest! Would you be good if we locked you in for July 15?

unixbigot commented 5 years ago

Yeah I can do then, @iamtommcc

Looking forward to it Biggs!

I've got around finally to doing the collateral, and wanted to say thank you for a great summary & speaker blurb! 🙏
